Chapter 16: The Most Difficult Task in History, Kicking the North Sea Kindergarten

It is said that a very long time ago,

This is the great day when the first cultivator who successfully survived the tribulation and ascended to the immortal realm became an immortal!

As for whether it's true or false, it can no longer be examined,

But from then on, every three years the cultivation world joyously celebrates this special festival.

The last time the Ascension Festival was held,

Ye Xiuxiu was only one year old at that time.

Not long after the Ascension Festival had just ended,

Whenever the Ascension Festival approaches, the entire cultivation world immerses itself in an atmosphere of joy and harmony.

People congratulate each other, sending beautiful blessings:

"Congratulations on your ascension!"

"May your cultivation increase day by day!"

"May your path to ascension be smooth sailing!"

At the same time, elders often prepare small gifts for the younger generation to express their expectations and encouragement for their future cultivation path.

This scene,

is somewhat similar to the New Year in the mortal world.

【The Ascension Festival is coming up; at that time many people will gather from all directions to congratulate your father Ye Qingping. Among them will be many of your childhood playmates, and you can take this opportunity to demonstrate your strength and charm, making those former playmates submit to you willingly. This will not only greatly boost your prestige in the local cultivation world, but also significantly enhance your influence, which will be of great help for your future counterattack.】

【Task One: Accumulate making one childhood playmate submit to you; reward: reduce spirit energy consumption for casting spells by one percent.】

【Task Two: Accumulate making five childhood playmates submit to you; reward: reduce spirit energy consumption for casting spells by two percent.】

【Task Three: Accumulate making nine childhood playmates submit to you; reward: reduce spirit energy consumption for casting spells by three percent.】

【Task Four: Accumulate making thirteen childhood playmates submit to you; reward: reduce spirit energy consumption for casting spells by four percent.】

【Task Five: Accumulate making seventeen childhood playmates submit to you; reward: a talent, double casting.】

Ye Xiuxiu furrowed her brow, her eyes tightly fixed on the task details before her,

she involuntarily muttered under her breath:

"How come it's again such a series of staged tasks?"

She lightly shook her head,

seeming somewhat helpless about this task pattern.

Next, her gaze shifted to the task requirements,

seeing that one of them actually required accumulating making seventeen childhood playmates wholeheartedly submit to her,

she couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, murmuring to herself:

"This is really too hard!"

She knows very well in her heart that achieving this is no easy feat,

Ye Xiuxiu gave a wry smile and joked,

"If I wanted to complete all these tasks, wouldn't I have to punch the South Mountain Elderly Home and kick the North Sea Kindergarten?"

It must be said, the difficulty of this task truly exceeds imagination,

and can even be called the most difficult task she has ever encountered.

If we were to move the time forward sixty years and then face it,

it would undoubtedly become a horror of hellish level.

Thinking of this,

Ye Xiuxiu couldn't help but secretly ponder whether her sixty-year-old self had successfully achieved Foundation Building.

However, fortunately,

the reward for such a difficult task is also extraordinarily generous,

one can actually obtain a brand-new talent!

You know, the talent she obtained last time was greatly beneficial to her,

so for this new talent,

she will absolutely not let it slip away easily.

Thus, Ye Xiuxiu began to rack her brains to think of countermeasures.

Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Chen Gong Dong beside her,

and casually asked, "Brother Chen Gong Dong, do you submit to me?"

Chen Gong Dong showed not the slightest hesitation,

and immediately answered firmly, "Of course I submit!"

His tone was resolute and decisive, needing no consideration.

【Accumulate making one childhood playmate submit to you.】

【Reward: reduce spirit energy consumption for casting spells by one percent.】

Upon receiving the system's response,

Ye Xiuxiu was first stunned, never expecting things to go so smoothly.

Immediately, a hint of surprise appeared on her face,

because she never imagined,

that just a single sentence,

would already have successfully settled the first person,

this truly gave her great encouragement and confidence.

If everyone could possess such astonishing speed, it would undoubtedly be called perfect to the utmost!

If we could trick the remaining sixteen people into all saying they are convinced of me,

then this seemingly daunting task would no longer be so difficult to accomplish.

After all, children are quite easy to fool.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiuxiu couldn't help but turn her head,

her gaze fell upon Ye Ruyan beside her, and she smiled broadly as she asked:

"Ruyan sis, are you convinced of me?"

Only saw Ye Ruyan sizing up Ye Xiuxiu from head to toe,

being able to twist the sage's words,

successfully hoodwinked the famous Confucian-Daoist figure He Pingsheng,

relying on erroneous sage's words to cultivate a vast Magnanimous Righteous Qi,

innovating upon the Confucian-Daoist cultivation method,

this inevitably makes one convinced.

"Convinced."

These two simple words entered Ye Xiuxiu's ears,

instantly filling her heart with great joy,

her face immediately blossomed with a smile as radiant as spring flowers,

she then eagerly awaited the system's corresponding response, full of delight and anticipation.

However, unexpectedly, time passed second by second,

after waiting as long as an incense stick burns, the system remained utterly silent,

indicating that only one person still expressed conviction toward her.

At that moment Ye Xiuxiu finally realized,

it turned out Ye Ruyan had just been speaking nonsense!

it seems merely saying "convinced" with the mouth is useless,

only genuine heartfelt conviction toward Ye Xiuxiu would work.

Ye Xiuxiu knows quite a lot about her second younger sister,

this little girl is truly overly precocious,

sometimes makes one wonder if she too is a transmigrator.

she once tried using palace jade-liquid wine on her,

but it didn't work.

Time flies, days pass one by one,

and the Immortal Ascension Festival draws ever nearer.

As the Immortal Ascension Festival approaches, the Ye household instantly becomes extraordinarily lively.

Every corner of the mansion is filled with a strong festive atmosphere,

people's faces beam with joyful smiles,

as if the whole world were filled with happiness.

As for He Pingsheng's teaching, it was temporarily put on hold.

Everyone decided to first fully enjoy the joy and festivities brought by the Immortal Ascension Festival,

after the festival ends, we will continue the journey of study.

During this period, Ye Xiuxiu met many other members of the Ye family.

The Ye family, as a cultivation clan, is large in size and numerous in population.

Ye Xiuxiu has many cousins, older and younger, and other relatives,

their ages are generally much older than Ye Xiuxiu's.

However, despite their age not being small,

their strength is not outstanding,

most have merely just entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Although this place is not the Ye family's ancestral land,

but whenever the Immortal Ascension Festival arrives,

the scattered Ye family members will, like birds returning to their nests, flock here from all over.

Simply because Ye Qingping is the most powerful existence in the Ye family,

the sole Body Integration Stage cultivator in the entire Ye family.
